I use the Simple Voice Box for keeping recipe messages. My home box only
holds 50 messages and they don't erase either. My cell phone only saves for
23 days I think.
But I only put a recipe I am going to make that week in a message. It is so
I can listen to it in the kitchen where I can take out all the ingredients
and put them on the table.
I use the message to make the recipe and then erase it because it is already
in my computer.

How does that work out? My messaging system only holds messages for
fifteen
days.

One thing I have been doing for myself is reading recipes into a message
box
on my phone. Then when I go into the kitchen I do not bring my computer
or
a book in there. Then when I make the meal I just erase the phone
message.

Unfortunately, brailled cookbooks seem to be less and less popular,
even
though they are the best format for in the kitchen. I personally
wouldn't
want my Pac Mate or Plex Talk Plus or Library of Congress digital player
in the kitchen where there is a chance of getting them, shall we say, in
need of repair? due to food particles. Brailled cookbooks, on the other
hand, especially if they are using thermoform paper, can easily be
cleaned
off, suffering no consequences.

Hi Nancy,
I'm a Braille user and love Braille cookbooks, so any resources you
would like to share would be appreciated here. I don't care for the
cookbooks on tape either for the exact same reason you spoke of.
I don't feel you are being pushy at all. I think any information you
would
like to share is going to be appreciated here on the list. Some folks do
like audio cookbooks, some still prefer the Braille.
Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems like I have an
easier
time now finding cookbooks in audio formats than in Braille. They take
up
less space and are probably more popular in today's tech-oriented world.

Hi everyone,
My brain isn't shopping at the moment and I would like your opinion
about
my
latest idea. Would anyone be helped if I listed all my Braille
cookbooks,
possibly where they came from and perhaps what they cost? Would it be
better
to post information about the sites such as Horizons for the Blind,
National
Braille Association, National Braille Press, etc. I usually like to
check
things out myself. One book might be meaningless to me but just what
someone
else needs. At the same time, I don't want to leave non-Braille users
feeling left out. I hate cookbooks on cassette because they usually are
not
tone indexed. I realize that I need to send the promised recipes before
I
start another project. I just want your thoughts. Am I coming across as
too
pushy? I don't want to do that at all.
Nancy Martin
